Most people collect watches the way they consume trends. BUT real collectors move differently. This conversation is about learning, taste, discipline, mistakes, and the moment hype stops mattering. We sit down with Juan Ayala from the Miami Watch Club to talk about how curiosity turns into connoisseur-ship, how travel reshapes watch taste, and why the best collections are built slowly, intentionally, and without validation. This episode explores what watch collecting looks like when community comes first, when value isn’t measured by price tags, and when the watch on your wrist actually says something about who you are. If you care about watches as culture, craft, and personal expression, this one’s for you. #watches #tudor #rolex #watchcollectors
